Get Your Message Out! Page 22 Conclusion Page 23 About the Authors Page 24 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors deeply appreciate the hard and effective work of many charter school educators and advocates. Without their many successes, this movement would not have shown such an enormous growth rate since 1991: from one school in one state, to some 3000 schools and 42 state charter laws, including the District of Columbia. Several people, including Christy Martinez and Aimee Segal, provided thoughtful advice during the preparation of this document. We also appreciate the support from the Shirley and Barnett Helzberg Foundation, the Johnston Education Fund of the Minneapolis Foundation, the Center for Innovative Education in New York City, the Bloch Family Fund and anonymous supporters who made publication of this report possible. However, the authors are solely responsible for the conclusions and recommendations. 1 INTRODUCTION: CHARTER SCHOOLS AND THE NEWS MEDIA The success or failure of any organization or movement depends in part on how well the public understands its mission, activities and results.

  • Unit:1 Basics of Editing the Ideal Principle, Which Governs Editing, Is
    Unit:1 Basics of Editing The ideal principle, which governs editing, is: ‘never overestimate the public’s knowledge and never underestimate the public’s intelligence’. In a news organization, editing plays a vital role. A news story is written by hurried reporters, and is rough-edged like raw diamond. Hence, the copy is polished and honed by a team of editors. Thus, editing is done to achieve a balance of news between that originating within the organization and that pouring in from outside. Sorting out and sifting also helps induce parity between the well-written articles and those written by the inexperienced reporters. In the process, the unwanted matter gets weeded out. Only the newsworthy stories are finally selected. These are checked and rechecked for grammar, syntax, facts, figures, and sense and also clarified for betterment, and are condensed for economy of space. Objectives of Editing: 1. Striving for focus and accuracy: Accuracy is one of the chief corners of the editing stage. News reports have the professional and ethical responsibility to include in their research and writing process the checking of facts, which includes the correct spelling and pronunciation of names, the factual details of a story, and any basis upon which conclusions are drawn. Multiple checks for accuracy are the norm. All careful, responsible writers should do the same. The reliability of the finished text depends upon accuracy in the researching and writing process. 2. Fact Checking: The internet has increased access to sources for checking facts. Unfortunately, the internet has also increased access to dubious sources. Debates about the academic credibility and trustworthiness of sources to which the public can contribute will probably continue as expanding internet access changes the rules by which sources are evaluated.
